I was super keen to try this eye cream as it is NZ made and natural, plus I'd been told great things about the brand. I really enjoyed using the product as I felt like it was nourishing my skin with its natural properties, however I can't say I really noticed any improvements to my fine lines. Because of this, the small pot size and the price, I probably wouldn't buy again unless it was on special.

Tips: I think this product and any Antipodes product would be great for those with sensitive skin.
A friend of mine said I should check this eye cream out. I'm allergic to kiwi fruit, at least eating it, so I very gingerly applied it. It wasn't very soothing but it didn't have any adverse effects. I can't tell any difference between before and after using it but it is a lovely cream, soft and nice smelling. Does help moisturise around your eyes. I like the packaging, I think the little pot is cute.
I really enjoyed this eye cream and felt like it did do what it was supposed to and was super moisturising. I didn't think it did much for my fine wrinkles but will more than likely repurchase because it is a really fantastic size a reasonable price and is readily available in NZ.
I never really know what to expect from eyecreams but this one felt amazing when used. So light and non greasy it just glided onto the skin and absorbed in so easily. I love the fact its NZ made and there is alot in the jar and should last quite awhile which makes it really economical.
This eye cream feels very nice on the skin. It didn't irritate my eyes or skin at all, there was absolutely no stinging even when I got a little bit too close to the lash line. It doesn't feel sticky or tacky on the skin afterwards either. Natural properties are a plus too.
On the other hand, it did take a while and quite a bit of tapping for it to absorb into the skin, even though it's not a super thick cream. Even with using the lightest pressure possible, this much touching got a bit uncomfortable for the thin skin around the eyes.
I also didn't notice significant improvement in fine lines, but I was very happy with its moisturising properties.
Tips: Use your ring finger to gently pat into skin, as this finger has the least muscle strength and is easier on the delicate eye area.
Tried this as I am trying to buy more products that are made in or around NZ and are more natural and animal friendly. The pot is smal but you don't need much, so lasts a long time. The cream smoothes into your skin easily and is absorbed quickly. It left my eyes cool and moisturised. Would use again.
I like this eye cream. I have sensitive skin and have had issues in the past with eye creams feeling uncomfortable/stingy in my eye area but this eye cream appears to be very gentle, probably because it's fragrance free.
While it's not the cheapest eye cream, the jar you get is deceptively large. I have been using mine for close to a year now and I have so much left!
I also like that the jar it's in is recyclable. The product is certified vegetarian also.
It moisturises pretty well. I would maybe prefer if it was slightly more moisturising but it sits well underneath makeup as it is because it's not greasy.
Tips: You can buy this product with Flybuys points on Flybuys - that's where I got mine.
This is a lovely luxurious eye cream that is perfect for all eyes, it absorbs really well in the underlying area and doesn't leave any residue behind. I have noticed my eyes seem.brighter and I suffer from dark circles under them.the price is a little on the expensive side but we'll worth it with so many amazing Ingredients your eyes will be winking at you in the mirror.
Tips: Put this in the fridge for an extra cooling eye cream
This is my second favorite eye cream. I layer this eye cream on top of my Trilogy eye serum for an extra moisturizing boost, but it performs well on it own too. I love that it's light and natural and you get 30ml as most eye creams will give you only 15ml. It would be nice if it came in a tube so you don't have to contaminate it by sticking you fingers in the pot. As far as the collagen boosting claims I do apply a little to the fine lines on other areas of my face and I really haven't seen a difference but I haven't seen them get worse. I don't know if it works to increase collagen of your skin but I'd be happy if it could stimulate the areas I apply it to to produce at least 40% more collagen. Overall it's an excellent eye cream and I will continue to purchase and use it.
Tips: Use a Q-tip to get the product out of the pot and avoid contamination. It's a great eye cream for layering on top of an eye serum, if you like doing that.the When you finished the little pot it comes in great for carry travel sized amounts of cream or another product. Also good for storing free samples of product that come in little packets you don't want to use in one try.
It is very moisturizing, natural and made in NZ. I didn't notice any difference in my skin, but it is nice to use and feels good on.
